It was the Best Italian cuisine we’ve had in Adelaide. The only thing which we would have preferred is sitting in the main dining area not at the entrance. There should be an option on booking.

This is not your generic Italian restaurant. Francesco's offers a niche, compact menu. Some of the flavours in the street food selection reminded me of my Italian mamma's cooking. The lovely waitress was more like a hostess welcoming you to dinner in her home. The dining room had a warm and cosy vibe. It was truly a diniing "experience". Thank you

My partner and I made a late reservation for dinner after work. The food was very good and the service was just right. The atmosphere was quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed vegan dishes - the lasagna on the menu and the special pasta with artichoke sauce, finished off with chocolate fudge. Everything was prepared well and presented nicely. Although Francesca's is out of the way for us, we'll be sure to return

It was an amazing experience. The food was incredible as always. I was a big fan of the stall and I’ve had their food for years. There isn’t a dish I’ve tried that has been ever been. It’s all spectacular and I’m not exaggerating. Would absolutely recommend to friends!

What is wrong here. Only one person on tables who did a fair job, pleasant, polite etc but.. food lacked sauce and had the impression it had come from the freezer, the lower part of the food was cold! I would expect a cannelloni to have discernible shape, filling and sauce. Not so . It was a compressed ,solid square. The seafood pasta was a mash of? No obvious fish, prawns etc were visible Extremely disappointing. All that with broken furniture thrown in for good measure. Allsodifferenfrom our first

Super friendly and attentive staff, delicious seasonal food, tasty wine, and great atmosphere. They also have a separate vegan menu and are very understanding about allergies - with no compromise on taste! We loved dining here and will definitely be back!

A local gem that wraps you in a warm hug of rustic charm. Super tasty dishes. I had the seafood risotto and my husband pesto gnocchi. Sides of caramelised fennel and charred broccolini- divine. And then the chocolate soufflé - comfort food of the highest order. The waitress says that’s why she works there - I can understand why! Excellent in every way. We will be back!
